HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!

Quick note to my husband.... HAPPY ANNIVERSARY RED!!! These two year of marriage have been amazing, filled with ups and downs but I couldn't imagine doing it without you! You are everything that makes me strong, and you are my weakness!!! Red, I love you with all my heart and I'm so thankful that you were brought into my life so many years ago!! Who knows where we would've been today without our first date (but not date) to Meatballs eight years ago! I love you!






thanks for that little moment.......

I'm pretty sure I've mentioned how much I love the Kraft website for recipes in my blog before. They also have a magazine that they send out (for free!!) that has AMAZING recipes in it. Last night's dinner was from their "Food and Family" magazine and it came out great. I made their Fiesta Chicken Enchiladas. I hesitated making this because it contains a wide variety of ingredients I try to not eat due to my crack-head texture issues. It was a little time consuming because we this recipe is meant to cut down on time by using left over cooked chicken, which is something we did not have. So, we had to grill the chicken and it added more time than I wanted. Other than that, it was a quick fix and incredibly delicious. My hubbie was raving at the end.
